2nd Malaysia Cocoa and Chocolate Fair, Mid Valley

Malaysia Cocoa and Chocolate Day for everyone -free admission, was held again on 7th to 9th October in Mid Valley Megamall. This is a great chance for you to know more chocolate maker/ factories especially in Malaysia.
The First Malaysia Cocoa and Chocolate Day was held on 15th to 17th October 2010 in Mid Valley Megamall too. To read more about the First Malaysia Cocoa and Chocolate Day, click here.

This year, the exhibition area was smaller, but the products displayed, for me, were better.
It was held concurrently with KLPF 2011, Kuala Lumpur Photography Festival 2011. Their website: www.klpf.com.my
Compare to Malaysia Cocoa and Chocolate Fair, Kuala Lumpur Photography Festival had more visitors and media press. I guess that's because of more happening and more "hot girls"!
Anyone who is interested shouldn't miss the next photography festival, don't misunderstand, i mean interested in getting professional camera sets at promotional package, k..!!

However, I am a chocolate lover, so i headed to the Malaysia Cocoa and Chocolate Day first.

There was a booth for Raw Cocoa fruit free tasting. Believed it or not, it's sour before processing into chocolate!

The pakcik was cutting a fresh cocoa fruit for us.

Another stall gave out free hot Chocolate drink! Delfi Chocolate. It tasted very yummy. But the product is not in the market yet! The promoter mentioned that the Delfi Cocoa powder will only be available in Malaysia market the next year, most probably in January 2012.

So they treated me a freshly made chocolate cake, fresh from the oven. It looked like Coeur Fondant, a type of French dessert. It didn't look that tempting, but i believe, the cocoa powder perfect everything.
Coeur Fondant means melted heart in french. It is normally called as Molten Chocolate Cake.
They served the chocolate cake with Blueberry sauce. But i prefer the taste without blueberry. The hot chocolate just melted in my mouth, yummy yummy!

This small slice of chocolate was nice too. It's soft, a little cold as it's just out of fridge, coated with cocoa powder.

The new item this year, the Hottest Angry Bird! Erm, angry bird is printed on chocolate so that you can eat them when you are angry? This is an innovative business owner!

There was a booth at the far end from Lembaga Koko, selling food such as: Cakes, Waffles, chocolate drinks, etc named Koko Bistro.
This booth was not crowded, maybe they didn't give free sampling. But the food served was excellent.
Oh for sure i can't resist the temptation. I bought a piece of Tiramishu. It's nicely presented, except the plate.
It's only cost at RM7 per piece! This is the best Tiramishu for the year! I never regret buying this.
And, it's accompanied by a piece of dark chocolate!
